I have been doing a ton of reading and asking questions. I am going to attempt paint my first car.BC/CC metallic, 3 tone. I have done a bike and airless and HVLP around the house etc.
I will do some practicing before the real thing. I do need some calcification on some things.
1. Enamel, acrylic, urethane, polyurethane, lacquer, etc what kind is best, newbie friendly, benefits etc.
2.Everyone has there favorites but i'm getting an idea of which brands are which, Shopeline, Onmi Plus, Valspar, Nason, not to good,
Wanda, Motobase, Prospray good and affordable. Diamant,PPG, Axalt, Glasurit good but expensive. I realize different manufacturers have more than one line.
I assume not every jobbers has all brands so should I pick out a couple brands I like and go with the one that is available locally?
3. Accelerator, binder, reducers, activators, adhesion promoter, what does each do and which are terms for the same thing?
Should I use any of the online vendors to buy from or stay away from?
I see all the different paints on line and have a hard time comparing them etc. Any help wrapping my head around thus would be great.
